Portable Ops still doesn’t work and Peace Walker on PSP is still $30 digitally! It’s a greatest hits title and only costs $14 new at retail. PSP Go users and Vita users are getting price gouged on your PSP games. This is not the way to run a digital distribution service that “competes” with retail!

Sad to still see no new news on PSOne Vita support. Though I am looking forward to WizOrb being compatible on Vita. Though I have to ask if anyone has noticed how said game seems to share most of the same graphics as the GBA titles Zelda: Minish Cap/ Zelda: 4 Swords…

I know we had all the goodies for PS+ for this month, therefore, are we having our monthly update next week, July 31st? or do we have to wait until the 7th?? Also, I’d like to see more discounts and sales on PS3 and PSN games! Free games are cool, good discounts are cool as well! More PS2 games would be welcome too!

Just curious, is there any chance the PSP versions of Final Fantasy I & II will ever come out on PSN? I don’t know why North America’s PSN doesn’t have them, but they’re up on the Japanese and European PSNs.

WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!! WHY IS RESIDENT EVIL 49.99 ON THE PSN STORE BUT YOU CAN GET IT FROM BEST BUY RIGHT NOW FOR 14.99????!!!!!!!!! WHOA!!!! WHATS GOING ON HERE????

PS+ has had some very nice bonuses and freebies the past year. Granted, the updates are inconsistant, but there are plenty of sales here and there (like last week’s excellent sale), and the free games are always welcome.

One thing you must keep in mind, though, is that not every game will be made free on PS+. There are several games that wouldn’t be made free just because of how well they keep selling (ie – PSOne Classic Final Fantasy VII is a great example of this).

Pretty good update! Though the pricing for Operation Racoon City is egregiously steep.

Also, the time frame “this summer” is really starting to get old for people who want PSOne Classics on Vita. Even if you need to delay things, a solid release date is significantly more reassuring than the vague, “Soon” or, “This summer”

am i missing something? was there supposed to be the gravity rush military add-on today? did it get removed at the last minute? ps blogcast (i might have not heard correctly from them) said that it would come out this tuesday.

No PSP price drops again this week and no further support for PS1 games or PSP games. I would once again like to state that I would love to see Portable Ops working on my Vita and the PS Store prices to (at least match if not beat) retail prices. Right now most PSP games are double retail!

Any word at all on a date for Vita Firmware 1.8? It was announced a couple weeks ago that this would be the update that brings PS1 support to the system, but we haven’t heard a word since then about it. Is it coming soon? Also, since several sites report different things about this, will the support be trickled out to titles or will all PS1 games be compatible at the time of the firmware release? I’ve got several games I’ve been holding out on playing because of waiting for this firmware!

Malicious and the Foosball looks interesting as long as there is a demo I will try it and go from there. I cant believe we have not gotten any free themes this month for Plus members its very disappointing.

Also it is disappointing to put a demo for Dyad a week after the sale so now if I get the demo and like it I will pay the full price. This problem needs to be looked into.

Great update I am intrigued to try Puddle on my Vita never played it, wondering if it will be any good. Was really hoping there would be a demo for Sound Shapes I CAN NOT WAIT for that game. Plus can you please gives us an ETA on when the update for Vita to play PS1 classics on my vita getting antsy.

It’s good to see the Dyad demo finally available, but is the sale still going on
For Plus members?

If not I feel that’s a tad shady. Especially considering the full game of Dyad was nothing more than the demo packaged with an unlock key. So there was no reason not to release the demo at the time of the sale

We messaged this earlier, but unfortunately, it was determined that this title can not release in NA. as it only supports PAL video output, which is incompatible with North American television sets. The team’s the discovered this send their apologies.
